HEALTH CHECK
Shane's final test was the only one he did not prepare for. This leads us to our Number 1 Test Match initiative.
"Shane Warne Legacy Heart Check".
This campaign has the potential to save lives.
The sudden and tragic passing of Shane Warne sparked a significant upsurge in public interest in heart disease and heart attacks, referred to as the "Shane Warne Halo Effect." This phenomenon serves as a testament to the enduring legacy Shane leaves off the field.
Statistics have shown a remarkable 62% increase in Heart Health Checks from March 2022 to January 2023, reflecting the profound impact of Shane's passing.
Approximately 45% of individuals who undergo this simple 4-minute heart check are subsequently referred to their GP for further assessment, underscoring its critical importance.
We are giving all Australian's the opportunity to get a FREE heart check.
